The world is live. Find it on a map.
Flontr is the first platform where you discover live video streams by location on a map — not algorithm. Watch what is happening right now, anywhere on Earth.
The Problem
Live streaming is everywhere. Discovery is broken.
Every major platform — TikTok, YouTube, Instagram, Twitch — organises live content by algorithm, topic, or follower graph. None of them answer the simplest question:
"What is happening live, right now, near this place on Earth?"
No geographic discovery
You cannot search for live streams by location on any major platform. The map is the most natural way to explore the world — and it has never been applied to live video.
Algorithm gatekeeping
Platforms surface content based on engagement metrics, not relevance to place. A streamer broadcasting from a remote village has zero chance of being discovered by someone curious about that exact location.
No on-demand model
There is no way to commission a person already on the ground to show you something specific. The Scout economy — pay a local to be your eyes — does not exist yet.
The Solution
A live map of the world, made by people
Flontr puts every live stream on a map. Tap any pin to watch. Request access. Tip the streamer. Or send a Scout Request — commission someone on the ground to show you exactly what you want to see.
Tap any pin
Purple dots are people live near you. Gold pins are featured streams. Every pin is a real human broadcasting right now.
Request access
Send a free access request. The streamer approves or denies. No algorithm, no follower requirement — just a direct human connection.
Watch live
Peer-to-peer WebRTC stream opens instantly. Tip the streamer, mute, or go full-screen. No app download required.
Scout Request
Pay a streamer to show you something specific. A market, a street, a building. The future of remote exploration, built on Flontr.
Market Opportunity
A $108B market in 2026 — projected to reach $345B by 2030
The live streaming market is growing at 34% CAGR and is forecast to exceed $345B by 2030. Geographic discovery remains a completely untapped vertical — validated by Periscope's map feature being its most-loved capability before Twitter shut it down in 2021. No successor has emerged in five years.

Target Users
Who uses Flontr — and why not the alternatives
Flontr serves five distinct user groups that existing platforms leave underserved. Each has a clear reason to choose Flontr over what is already available.
Curious Explorers
Who: People who want to “teleport” to any city in real time — not watch a polished travel vlog from six months ago.
Why Flontr: Google Maps Street View is static. YouTube travel content is edited. TikTok’s algorithm decides what you see. Flontr is the only surface where “what is happening in Tokyo right now” is a single tap on a map.
“I opened Flontr in Tallinn and watched a street market in Osaka. Nothing else does that.”
— Beta tester, Estonia
IRL Streamers
Who: Content creators who stream from real-world locations — streets, events, nature — and are buried by the algorithm on TikTok and Twitch.
Why Flontr: On TikTok Live, being in Kyoto during cherry blossom season does not help you get discovered. On Flontr, location is the discovery mechanism. Being somewhere interesting is enough.
“I got 40 viewers in my first stream just because I was at a night market. On TikTok I had zero. The map found them for me.”
— IRL streamer, Thailand
Drone & Vehicle Operators
Who: FPV drone pilots, dashcam enthusiasts, boat vloggers, and plane spotters who have no dedicated discovery surface today.
Why Flontr: YouTube requires an established channel. Twitch is gaming-first. Flontr has a dedicated stream type selector (drone, car, boat, plane) and a map that makes aerial or vehicle POV content instantly discoverable by geography.
Local Event Followers
Who: People who want to see what is happening at a festival, protest, sports event, or city celebration in real time — without waiting for a news crew.
Why Flontr: Citizen covers safety incidents only. Snapchat Map shows clips, not live streams. No platform lets a single person with a phone become a live broadcast tower for their neighbourhood.
Remote Workers & Expats
Who: People living abroad who want to feel connected to their home city — watching the main square on a Tuesday afternoon is a surprisingly emotional experience.
Why Flontr: Social media shows curated highlights. Video calls require a contact to pick up. Flontr provides ambient, always-on presence from any place on Earth with no friction.
“I live in Berlin but I’m from Porto. I watch the Ribeira waterfront on Flontr when I miss home. It’s weirdly comforting.”
— Remote worker, Germany
Tourism & Event Brands
Who: Tourism boards, city marketers, festival organisers, and sports venues that want authentic live coverage without hiring a production crew.
Why Flontr: Sponsored pins and featured stream placement (roadmap Q4 2026) let brands pay to surface live content from their destination directly on the Flontr map — a format no other platform offers.
The single most compelling pitch: Flontr is the product for anyone who has ever opened Google Maps Street View and wished it were live. That instinct is universal.
